Attention players! The experience point list has been updated, feel free to take a look in the Rules thread.

First of all, allow me to announce my selections for Covert Ops for the upcoming game! I made my choices based on overall performance and consistency. Almost every player on every team met the qualifications, so it was a very tough choice.

Cobra Team: Eyes-of-a-snake

G.I Joe team: Dawingster

Iron Grenadiers team: DustyCarlisle

Congratulations to this next game’s Covert Operatives!!

There have been a few changes to the rules:

*Group targeting has been removed from the game.

*Misfires: Every 5 item points will get you an -3 hurt Magazine or a +3 heal medikit. Details are in the Misfire section of the rules.

*Snipers, Commandos and Stealth Assassins:

As you already know, Snipers do max damage at long range and Commandos do max damage at CQC range. Starting this next game, Snipers, Commandos and Stealth Assassins, can move to their optimum range, independent of the rest of the team. You have to buy this bonus by posting:

Cobra Sniper
Moving to Sniper range, etc…

So basically, your giving up one day’s damage to do maximum damage for the rest of the game.

*Pilots and Drivers now hurt -2 at Close range, you no longer have to sit out the battle at close range, hip hip, hooray!!

*Action Commands:

“Push them back” and “Pin them down” will now take -5 move/action, respectively, from each team. Instead of aiming at a team, you just use the command and it will affect both teams.

*I have added a new Action Command. This is a “free” command, it does not cost anything to use, it does not count against your action command total.

*“Defensive perimeter"

Your Team forms a defensive perimeter to repel the enemy’s assault. Result; The damage from the next five attacks from each team will be cut in half, for a total of ten attacks. -2 becomes -4, etc. Odd numbers will be rounded down, -3 becomes -1, -5 becomes -3.

Limitations; *This is a free Action command. It does not count toward your total of four. You may only use this once, and it will not protect you from damage dome by a CM.

*IMPORTANT: This may only be used when all three teams are splitting their attacks.

And finally, the Rules of engagement have been boiled down to the essentials, feel free to take a look.

If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up! Thanks Guys and Gals,

Attention players! The next team challenge will begin Tuesday the 16th, as Monday turns over to Tuesday. So, on Monday night at 11:59pm, be at your consoles!

Team Challenge #5

Paratrooper Assualt

Your intelligence network has discovered a powerful new energy source, they are trying to pin down the location so you can quickly send in your paratroopers and secure the location. Once the location of the energy source has been identified, you need to quickly send out orders and deploy your troops!

Rules:

1. Before reset, I will send each team leader the location of the assault via PM.

2. You must then spread the name of the location among your troops. Each player that posts the name of the location will deploy one paratrooper.

3. First team to deploy 15 paratroopers will take the position.

4. First team to take the position gets to choose an Item worth one point from Vader’s Armory.
